Advanced Packaging Materials and Evaluation Platform at Resonac
Resonac has started Packaging Solution Center as new R&D center to propose one-stop solution for customers in 2018 and established the co-creative packaging evaluation platform “JOINT2” with leading companies to accelerate the development of advanced materials, equipment and substrates for 2.xD and 3D package in October, 2021.
2.xD and 3D packages require to connect chips and components in high density, therefore, both wiring pitch and vertical interconnect dimension must be finer and finer. At the same time, in order to achieve better performance, more and more chips are integrated together and thus the package size is increasing. To meet these requirement, we are developing fine vertical/lateral interconnect technology and the study of fabrication and reliability for the extremely large 2.5D advanced package.
The presentation will cover the significance and strengths of JOINT2, and updates on research and development.

Before that he was a Manager of Marketing Promotion Group in Innovation Promotion Center at Hitachi Chemical (HC) for 2 years. When the career, he was promoted new R&D projects, especially targeting new business field using new technologies, and also to promote developing R&D products. As a side note, HC is one of the merged companies of Resonac. Hidenori Abe was Manager of Business Development Group in Packaging Solution Center at HC for 1 year with responsibility to promote open laboratory to partners such as customers and equipment makers, responsibility of marketing wearable related materials. Before that, he was epoxy molding compounds (EMC) engineer. During his 16 years carrier as engineer, he spent time doing responsibility of development of non-conductive carbon, green EMC, Cu wire compatible EMC, wafer level compression compounds, power module EMC and so on. His Cu wire compatible EMC development work contributed to the promotion to Cu wire conversion through several published papers. He received a master degree in chemical engineering field from Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan and a master degree at the EMBA course from Oxford, UK.
